I've been on Remi since late January. I'm 4 doses in at 5 mg/kg. Tonight I started Imuran 75 mg/day. This is pretty much it for treatment options besides similar versions with Humira.
God I'd like to experience Remission.
Dude, 5 mg/kg is weak sauce. You have to be at 10mg/kg especially in your case where it's not working. And 75mg of imuran is nothing. This is called experimental dose, you have to be at least 100mg/150mg or more to make it do something.
"If Remicade seems to lose its effectiveness in adults who have initially responded well to the drug, the dosage can be increased up to 10 mg per kg (about
4.5 mg per pound) every eight weeks."
It's obvious 5mg didn't do crap.
